Ukraine, UNOCHA contribution 2023 for Ukraine Humanitarian Fund (UHF)


UNOCHA’s Ukraine Humanitarian Fund (UHF) is a strategic and vital tool available to donors to pool their contributions into single, unearmarked funds to enable humanitarian partners to deliver timely, coordinated and principled assistance within the framework of Humanitarian Response Plans (HRPs) and Flash Appeals. The UHF thus enables a flexible and inclusive humanitarian response, strategically maximizing available resources.

Contesto Russia’s military aggression against Ukraine continues to seriously deteriorate the humanitarian situation of civilians. An estimated 17.6 million people are in need of humanitarian assistance (UNOCHA). Destructions due to targeted attacks have impacted essential services, including access to education, health services and water. Anticipating similar attacks as in the year before, living conditions may get particularly severe for many during the winter months. Russia’s military aggression against Ukraine further threatens the supply of essential goods such as food, energy and fertilizers. 
Obiettivi Efficiently support the people in Ukraine in need of humanitarian assistance by contribution to the Ukraine Humanitarian Fund (UHF).
Gruppi target The 2023 HRP targets 11.1 million people, of which 6.1 million (56%) women and girls, 3 million (27%) children, 2.4 million (22%) older people, and 1.6 million (15%) people with a disability. Of the 11.1 million targeted people, 3.8 million are internally displaced people and 2.5 million returnees. 
Effetti a medio termine

Strategic Objective 2: Enable access to basic services for internally displaced people, nondisplaced people and returnees.

Objective Second Reserve Allocation: Support the time-critical, high-impact activities of the winterization response plan.
